The Internet contains an infinite number of high-quality, interesting, intriguing, and well-designed sites, and surfing on the Web is usually a source of enjoyment and acquisition of knowledge. However, because there is no supervision in this environment, it is sometimes difficult to know when positive activity could become dangerous and cause damage. It is important for you to be aware of the dangers lurking on the Internet and protect yourself.
Don't:
- give out your name, age, address, school, phone number, picture about yourself or anyone else without your parent's permission. This includes chat rooms, instant messages, email, etc...
- meet with someone in person that you met on the Internet unless your parent have agreed and will go with you. People aren't always who they say they are and that an adult can pretend to be a kid online.
- answer/open e-mails, enclosures, links...from people you don't know.
- give your password to anyone except your parents.
Follow family's rules for online safety at home, at school, at the library or at a friend or relative's house. Protect yourself!
